№ 28. Manila Extract (after Ondoy)

Design Anthology



You are dense.
An equation of salty noodles 
steaming in my cup.


You are stained.
A peppered whisper
left by the ketchup on my lips.


You are Manila.
A name seasoned by monsoons
stirring needles in my gut.

    Yeah! Inspired by a midnight snack of lucky me noodles, while the rain emptied Kabayan into the streets.

    Thanks Teacup =)
